"Predictable" and "common" are not words one might use to describe social activities available to the public in Durham. See LUEWWD as an example.

On September 20th, the League of Upper Extremity Wrestling
Women of Durham, or LUEWWD (pronounced “lewd”), will host LUEWWD XI: First
in Fight, another in a string of theatrical women’s arm wrestling
fundraisers that have raised nearly $60,000 for local organizations
including Durham Connects, Habitat for Humanity’s Women Build, and
Liberty Arts and the Scrap Exchange.

The event is set for 9:00 pm at Social Games and Brews and the beneficiary is Durham First In Families which offers support to
individuals with intellectual or developmental disabilities and/or
traumatic brain injuries, and their families. Funds raised through
LUEWWD XI will directly help women self-advocates with requests such as
medical equipment, accessible technology, developmental toys, car
repairs, gas vouchers, guardianship costs, and camp fees. Doors will open at 7:30.
